A humbling Europa League final defeat. A historically dreadful Premier League campaign. A still-new head coach who isn't afraid to point out publicly how low Manchester United have fallen.
It would be fair to say one of the world's biggest clubs is broken and on its knees.
This summer's transfer window is one of the most important in United history.
If they are to avoid another failed reboot, they can't afford any mistakes. They must give Ruben Amorim the best resources possible to succeed in the 3-4-3/3-5-2 system he is adamant about playing.
So where do you start?
